Frequently Asked Questions
Check out our FAQ page to gain some knowledge about our processes!
Vote/Place A Pre-order
How do I vote for a beer?
The voting period will be announced via social media, email and on the voting form prior to the launch. Select which beer you would like to see brewed and follow the prompts to finish placing your vote on our “vote” page.
How do I order a beer?
When a beer wins the voting round it will go up for pre-order on our website. You can check out winning recipes and place pre-orders here for pick-up in our Milwaukee, WI taproom. The winning beers can be ordered until they have sold out.
Can I order multiple times?
Yes, you can!
What happens if my beer doesn’t win?
Sometimes if a beer is a close second it can make an appearance in a future voting round!
The process
Package type
4-PACK OF 12 FL OZ CANS OR 6-PACK OF 12FL OZ CANS
Crowdsourced beers in CANS! That’s right! Depending on the style of the beer you will receive a 4pk or a 6pk of cans! Why the shift away from bottles? We have brewed and aged the beer to perfection and we want you to enjoy it fresh! Cans offer a versatile vessel to enjoy your beer from almost anywhere! Cheers!
How long does it take for me to get my beer?
When we are running a vote, the voting period spans from the first through the 21st at 11:59 PM CST. Once the winner is named the winning beer will be brewed the following month – you can expect most of the beers we make to be packaged in 4-6 weeks after it has been brewed. We say “most” because some beers take longer than others, our higher ABV beers take an extra week, lagers and beers with secondary ingredient additions take about 6 weeks, and barrel-aged beers can age from 6 months to a year! – It is all in the beers time so to say.
How do I receive the beer I ordered?
Once the beer is packaged and ready for release, it can be picked up at our Milwaukee Taproom & Brewery. You will receive detailed emails when the beer is ready to be picked up.
Is this legal?
Are you 21+ Years of Age? If so, Yes! As long as you live in one of the states that allow shipments of beer from a retailer to your door (see where we can ship FAQ) or pick up your beer at one of our pickup locations – we are good to go!
